Review: 2014-03-08, some good single shots between Michael Johnson and Melvin Guillard but it is not enough to get three stars. Michael Johnson entered this fight with a pro mma record of 14-8-0 (64% finishing rate) and he is ranked as the No.15 lightweight in the world, last year he fought three times losing his first fight to Reza Madadi (=Johnson vs Madadi) but then he won the other two bouts: the first one against Joe Lauzon (Lauzon vs Johnson) and the second one knocking out Gleison Tibau.
His opponent, Melvin Guillard, has an official record of 31-12-2 (71% finishing rate) and he entered as the No.22 in the same weight class, last year he fought twice, winning Mac Danzig in July (=Guillard vs Danzig) while the second bout ended in a no contest (illegal knee against Ross Pearson, Guillard vs Pearson). Johnson vs Guillard is on the undercard of Alexander Gustafsson vs Jimi Manuwa – UFC Ufn 38. Watch the video and rate this fight!
